Henry Ward Beeeher
Dead. .

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher was strick-
en- down with an apoplectic fit Satur-
day. No hopes are entertained of his
recovery. At noon MONDAY his ply
sicians posted the following bulletin.
The condition of Mr.. Beecher at this
hour does not vary essentially from that
given to the press last evening. The
only changes perceptible are increase
in the rapidity of pulse and respirations
These stand respectively l0S and 36 to
38 per minute. The respiration is also
more shallow. The temperature reaches
101 degrees. The symptoms indicate
the gradual failure of vitality which has
been anticipated and the consequent
slow approach of the end. This course
of the disease can only be changed by
the occurrence of fresh hemorrhage, an
accident which may or may not happen
and the time of which cannot be sur
missed. There are no reasons to believe
thata fatal issue will occur today.

Free Trade.

The reduction Of internal revenue
and the taking off Of revenue stamps
from Proprietary Medicines. no doubt
has. largely benefited the consumers,
as well as relieving the burden of home
manufacturers. Especially is this the
case with Green's august FloaOer and
Boschee's German Syrup, as the reduc.
ton of thirty.six cents per dozen. has
been added to increase the size of the
bottles containing these remedies,
thereby giving one-fifth more medicine
in the IS cent size.
The august Flo,ocr for Dyspepsia
and Liver Complaint. and the German
Syrup for Cough and Lung troubles,
have perhaps. the largest sale of any
medicines in the world. The advant-
age of increased size of the bottles will
be greatly appreciated by the sick and
afflicted. in every town and village in
civilized countries. Sample bottles for.
10 cents remain the same size.

This is the way Bob Buriette ex-
plains the long and short haul, why
anybody ought to know what costs the
most. You see, am sitting i'll q rail-
way parlor car down in Maine writing
a postal card to q friend in Oregon.
Now. If | can get that card to the mail
car, only seven car lengths ahead Of me,
the government will carry it three
thousand miles for one cent. That is
the long haul. But it costs me a quar-
ter to get the porter to carry it to the
postal car. That's the short haul.
Then the porter loses it on his way or
forgets all about it. That's the shrink
age. And there you have the whole trans
portation problem in nutshell

The resolution passed by the house to
reward ex-judge E. St. Julien Cox for
his ''martyr-like conduct in the Indian
war by expunging the records of his
trial, was badly wrecked in the senate
the day before adjournment. A sillier
thing than the attempt on the part OF a
legislative body to expunge the records
of high court of impeachment, could
not have been imagined. Had the Cox
resolution been passed, resolution TO
canonize the ex-judge or. to expunge the
history of the rebellion would have been
in order. We are reliably informed
that one of the senators was prepared,
in the event of the success of the new de-
parture, to offer resolution drafted by
Mr.. Donnelly, to expunge, cancel. va
cate, obliterate, erase, blot out and ef
face the records of the house of repre-
sentatives for the last thirty days of the
session. .-

The twin cities are wild with grief
that their neat little scheme to control
the next legislature through a re-appor-
tionment based upon the humbug they
have been wont to call an enumeration
OF inhabitants, was nipped in the half
developed blossom. They will have to
wait until an honest census shall have
been taken under the authority of the
national government. # personal integri-
~ were made qualification for voting
and the re-apportionment were made on
the basis Of honest votes cast, the two
cities that have accumulated their
wealth principally at the expense Of the
agricultural districts, would have very
little to say in future legislation.

PIoNEER Pass, March 2: ..The le-

| z : j / + 4
PIONEER Press, March 2: ''The le-
gislative session expires by limitation
tomorrow. Although it has lasted for
sixty days, nearly all the legislation of
real importance undertaken remains
atnconspleted. This is a rcgrettable
state of things. but it is Improbable to
scold about it just now. The constitu-
ents of legislators will probably discuss
and settle in due time the question of
responsibility for wasted hours and de-
layed business .''-P1oNEER Press,
March 5: '.I'he legislature which just
adjourned is to be credited with passing
more than the usual number of bills Of
the first Importance, and of real or prob
able benefit to the people Of the state.
Yet such is the fact; and the further in
structive fact is that all of this business,
with the single exception of the high Ii
cense bill, was completed after the
house had dssemancipated itself from the
control of the demagogue and asserted
its right to do in its own way the work
which it was chosen to perform. We
may congratulate the farmers of ofMinne-
sofa upon the proof thus made that
legislature in which they had MAORI.
ty was capable, when left to its indie.
pendent better judgment, of serving
the public interest faithfully and well.
Of the principal objects of legislation
enumerated sicty days ago, bat one re-
mains uaconlpleted, and that was acted
upon by the house and smothered in the
senate. Save only the reapportionment
bill, every leading measure recommend
ed by the public press has been made
into law" ."-Judging from the above,
the actual work of the legislature must
have been accomplished principally
during the last forty-eight hours of the
session. If such a tremendous amount
of work can be turned out in two days,
there is certainly no need of extending
the length of sessions to ninety days.

Liquid fuel has made lately a fresh
advance in European waters, the sail
ing vessel Protektsia, fitted with tanks,
having arrived at Odessa with 800 tons
of petroleum refuse, which was at once
purchased for various Russian factories
there, hitherto using English coal. The
consignment was from the Caucasus
port of Novorossisk, where petroleum
refuse has been selling for some time
past at about lbs. per ton. As by
means of the Russians furnaces in use,
a ton of oil refuse goes as far as two
tons of English coal, the latter is alto
gether out of the market at Odessa T;
and we may expect in consequence to
see considerable developement in the
new enterprise.

1t is said that j. B. Parkes, a Ken.
tucky farmer, has trained seven large
monkeys sent him by his brother, who
resides in South Africa, to work in his
hemp fields and to break and prepare
the hemp for market. The monkeys do
the work faster and better than the ne
groes formerly employed by Mr.. Parkes,
and ut one-fourth the cost. After the
Chinese and the prison labor questions
shall have been disposed of, it may be.
come necessary to hoist a monkey labor
plank into political platforms.
